Defiant Joe Dunne is “absolutely confident” he can revive Colchester United’s ailing season.

And the U’s boss has challenged his struggling side to be “coupon-busters” at in-form Bournemouth tomorrow.

The U’s are rated by some bookmakers at 6/1 to win this weekend.

Nevertheless, Dunne believes his U’s side are capable of upsetting the odds.

He said: “Bournemouth must be rubbing their hands about tomorrow, looking at the form table.

“But it could be a coupon buster this weekend because no-one will have us down to win, that’s for sure.

“They’ll be a big X next to Bournemouth on the coupon but we’ve got to go there and upset a few people."

Lets hope that Ernie Howe winning the award for division one manager of the month in November plays its usual jinx on him tommorow.

I really really, want a win from Col Utd, but I honestly can't see it. I can't see where the goals will come from.

Bournemouth are one of the inform teams in the league and against the rag-bag side we will have to field today it will be no contest. Bournemouth could inflict on us one of our heaviest defeats ever, where anything less than 5 goals in the against column would seem like a miracle.
